If it’s lightbulb, I’m confused as to why either h7 or i12 weren’t used first instead of lava. And if it’s lightbulb, Nich not knowing what l4 was when it could’ve been lamp is a tad concerning.

So maybe it’s lamp? I’m between the two. H7 and i12 work infinitely better for lightbulb. Lava works infinitely better for lamp. Now that we’ve gotten both, I have nfi which way to go.


I mean I guess halogen could’ve thrown us way off and into chemistry. LED also could’ve taken us elsewhere. Incandescent seems pretty straightforward and probably would’ve nailed lightbulb in one.

Starting to lean lamp.


Yh i think its lamp or bulb or something

Lean lamp but we should work out G

Which i cant


Oh, genie lol

Bold lamp at your leisure


lamp

nice catch


Yaaaaay!

LED oh yea that's good haha

My obscure was leg lamp from a Christmas story

Maybe shoulda fired the d3/d6 - dimmer. This word seemed much trickier than would "seem" imo


Rule #1: never mention a clue that is same letter and number as the target

Once you mentioned L4 we had to go with that bc if we clue incandescent or whatever with an L4 clue out there they assume L4 is lamp and never guess it

Good rule. And I never realized I'd committed that error until I read your post just now.

T4 seems like the ticket. I’d call a3 and r4 both good confirmers. G5 also, all three in a very similar vein.


I’m already closer to r4 being the clue with the others as confirmers. It’s has way fewer misdirections than t4, which is a premium confirmer for that clue.


I'm not sure what r4 is but I agree that T4 works best as a confirmer


Think about another definition and then r4 might come to you.


Same for a3 and g5


Can't a3 just not miss? Seems...legal and great?


Oh we don't have access to it yet lol, feel this should still be gettable


g5 seems like it can't go too wrong


If g5 is like a3, then go for it. If they miss them T4 becomes a gimme instead of a confirmer.


Wait for D1iab. And consider r4, please.


R4 is a3. G5 is related, but not exact


I was gonna say we should do r4 for sure, but it looks like it's not a word in the dictionary??? Not sure it's really legal.

I think we have to do g5, but they should get it anyway.


Oh yea I know r4 now

If it's legal obv do that, g5 is not as good of course


Boomp
